The Yes Ladder

The Yes Ladder is a technique for getting people to agree to something they wouldn't agree to if asked outright. You do it by asking a series of questions, all of which a normal person would say "yes" to. The questions increase in scope as you go, and the sheer momentum of saying "yes" after "yes" gets you to say the final "yes" to the biggest ask at the end.This exploits a few principles:- The frog in boiling water effect- Cialdini's Consistency principle- Priming, aka Pre-suasionCold open is from Yes Prime Minister
